Tools for people who stream to more than one platform at once.
The tools
IRL Dashboard
A single-screen control panel for IRL streaming that runs on the router in your backpack. Chat, modem signal, bitrate, encoder controls, weather, GPS and your platform links on one page you can pull up on your phone mid-stream. No laptop, no cloud service, keeps working on cellular.
Unified Chat
Merges live chat from YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Discord, Rumble, Trovo, DLive and Facebook into one scrolling feed, pushed to your browser over SSE. Includes a YouTube live-title editor so you can rename a running stream without opening Studio.
ReStreamer Watchdog
Watches your datarhei Restreamer ingest and automatically pushes a looping fallback video to every live platform when the source stops transmitting — then stops it when the source comes back.
Coming soon
Weather Overlay Widgets
Drop-in browser-source overlays that put live local weather on your stream — current conditions, temperature and forecast, styled to sit cleanly over your scene without fighting the rest of your layout.
Live GPS on Map
Show where you actually are while you stream. Feeds your live position onto a map overlay for IRL and travel broadcasts, so viewers can follow the route in real time.
No dates promised. These ship when they're good enough to put on a live stream.
Getting started
IRL Dashboard runs on your router. One command in its terminal, then you configure everything in the browser — no SSH or text editor after that:
wget -qO- https://streamhelpers.com/irl-dashboard/install.sh | shThe Docker tools all follow the same pattern. Copy the folder to your Docker host, then:
cp .env.example .env
nano .env # fill in your credentials
docker compose up -d
docker compose logs -fYou need
For the Docker tools, any machine running Docker — Unraid, Synology, a Pi, a VPS. For the IRL Dashboard, a router running OpenWRT (GL.iNet routers ship it).
Unraid users
The Docker tools ship an .xml Community Applications template. Drop it in /boot/config/plugins/dockerMan/templates-user/. No Docker Hub account needed.
Keep it internal
These dashboards control your live streams. Set a password where the tool offers one, and don't forward the ports to the open internet.
.env file for the
Docker tools, settings.json for the IRL Dashboard. Treat those files like a
password: don't commit them, don't share them, and don't put the dashboard anywhere the public
can reach it.
Support the project
Donations are welcome — and buy you nothing
Everything here is free, and it stays free. If a tool saved your stream and you want to throw something in the hat, there's a link below. It helps cover hosting and the time these take to build.
To be completely clear: a donation is a voluntary gift, not a purchase. It does not buy support, a warranty, a service level, bug fixes, feature requests, or priority of any kind, and it doesn't create any obligation on our side. Donations are non-refundable. Please only give what you're happy to give away with nothing expected back.
